The No. 6 Iowa Hawkeyes defeated Minnesota, 108-60, at Williams Arena in Minneapolis, MN, on Wednesday, Feb. 28, 2024. The win sets Iowa at 14-3 in conference play.
Iowa guard Caitlin Clark led the Hawkeyes in points with 33, but the win was a team effort with multiple players scoring in the double digits.
After breaking the all-time NCAA women’s scoring record against Illinois, Iowa guard Caitlin Clark was set to break the all-time men’s scoring record within the season. After scoring 33 points against Minnesota, she needs 18 more to become the all-time record-holder for both.
Although she did not get the 51 points needed, it was a big game for Clark. She broke the Big Ten career three-pointer and NCAA single-season three-pointer records in the game. Clark also achieved her 17th triple-double.
Iowa guards Gabbie Marshal and Taylor McCabe also had a big game with Marshall scoring her 1000 career points with the Hawkeyes and McCabe making four three-pointers in the fourth quarter.
